Question:
I have a Belle Kogen nesting pair of vases in travertine and citron yellow with the #’s on the bottom of each piece as: B1418 and B1418A. I would like to know a ballpark figure of its value as I am planning on selling it on e-bay or would sell to any other interested party. Is it rare? It is in perfect condition as I have never used it. Carol Bogut

Question:
I bought this statue at a local thrift store last week. It has a Red Wing crock he’s holding up on his shoulder. I believe this is some type of commemorative item, but I don’t know for sure. It’s dated 1984 on the base of the crock and has a number "67" on the base of the crock also. There are no other markings, unless the statue is marked under it’s base. If so, I can’t look at the bottom of it’s base, because it’s mounted on a wooden base. The statue measures 16 1/2" tall. I would really love to find something out about this. Thanks in advance.

Question:
I was not able to send a picture of my vase from this page so I will describe it. I have a vase that has a Nokomis glaze. The vase has a circular blue ink stamp on it\’s bottom that reads Red Wing Art Pottery. The vase has a five inch diameter top. From the top, the vase tapers in to provide a slender neck which meets a bulbous body. Two handles directly across from oneanother are attached to the top and curve down and join the bulbous body. The bulbous body is approximately nine inches in diameter. The vase is approximately nine inches high. The vase strikes me as having a Mediterranean or Phoenician art form. The vase has beautiful vibrant coloration over its entire body. The only flaw I see on this vase is a flat spot that appears on the top of one of the handles. The flat spot is slightly smaller than the size of a dime. The flat spot has the same coloration as the rest of the vase. Their are no hair line cracks or crazing on this vase. The vase I have just described I have seen on the front of a book on Red Wing Pottery. Please provide any information you have on this vase. Do you have an idea of what the desirability and value of this vase would be? Thanks for your help.

Question:
I recently came upon this vase, a #251, and have some questions about its authenticity. According to the 1931 catalog that I have, this vase was made in two colors: yellow and light green. The color of this vase is described as: "The color of this vase is an aqua blue with green highlights throughout. The highlights, is one looks closely, are the green that is usually associated with Red Wing’s Art Ware line, but the overall tone is aqua. It’s a little darker in person than it appears on my monitor. The highlights have a bit more contrast. It’s has more "life" in person and doesn’t appear washed out like it may on some of your monitors." They have also measured the vase and say it is 9-3/4\" high, where the information I have says that this vase is 10" tall. I’d really appreciate your valued insight on this piece – do you think it is authentic? I don’t have much time to decide on this purchase, so a prompty reply would be greatly appreciate. Thanks, in advance, for your timely response!!!
